We had gone shopping for some KVM switch for our customer.. but ended up buying myself some expensive lip gloss. I figured since i need one.. i might as well get a better one, afterall, they are for my lips.. and with weather like ours here in Canada, you kinda need to reaally protected yourself.
Unfortunately, the expensive lip gloss didn’t do a fabulous job.. they worked the same .. as my ordinary ones. So i tell myself.. is the more expensive lip gloss worth paying for..?? well in my humble opinion.. i see no harm getting ordinary ones.. in fact .. i now know that my ordinary ones did a better job.
Winter is definitely here.. and for those who are living in the West.. where winter is wicked.. the lip gloss is definitely something one need. You need not buy the most expensive ones.. the normal ones even from the dollar store will work..if you cannot find anything else. But of course, investing in a good lip gloss goes a long way. I love lip gloss from the Body Shop and my minerale lip gloss.. in fact it double up.. as a lipstick for me.. if i don’t feel like dressing up. Yes..!! i cannot live without my lip gloss.. especially during the winter.. it’s wicked on the lips. .. and my skin.
And of course .. moisturizer..!! the more the merrier..! trust me.. this is my suriving kit .. for the winter. I can’t lived without it. And a little go a long way, you wouldn’t believed how quick my skin turned flaky.. it was horrid.. but as soon as i slapped those moisturizer on.. it turned back normal. I kid you not..!
St Ives is by far the cheapest I found.. and most effective..! All these works.. and I bought them on sale for like $9.95. Swiss made.. and not too oily and comes with even extra mild formula for those who has sensitive skin. I love it..!!
I’m a big fan of Shu Uemura when i was still living in Asia, so you can imagine my excitment seeing this lipstick called Rouge Unlimited. At $23, I can buy them from ShuUemura.com, pretty cool .. the many shades to choose from. I hear the lipstick is creamy and long lasting. At $23 .. i know i can afford it. I love the packaging.. so futuristic and cool. I can’t wait to get one.
It absolutely suxs.. when a cold sore appears when you are just getting ready to go on a date or even just a night out with the girlfriends right. It is just so coincidental.. it’s amazing how it happens all the time. And donch you just hate it..!! i do .. !! HATE IT with a passion..!! Well.. i now use Super Lysine Cream for any big night out or event at work. And get relief and comfortable.. even if i was having it. It comes with 15 natural healing ingredients.. that doesn’t give you the burning sensation .. that others give. It’s really heaven sent, at $6.49 .. affordable.. and definitely something i have all the time.. in my purse.
Seriously natural is what they said their stuff is all about. And who supports organic and natural stuff .. more than myself. These fruit flavored lip glosses comes in cherry, lemon lime, raspberry and strawberry. Not expensive at all, only at $7.49 .. definitely a must buy. For gals like me who gets chapped lips all the time, you know you need a good moisturizer .. that can last for a least a few hours.. and doesn’t give you that whitish flake.. when you eat or drink stuff during the dark. Some lip gloss can be very cheap, at a buck a piece.. but likee they said.. you get what you pay for. I would’t want flaky dead skin or white oily stuff on my lips.. because you probably wouldn’t see it till you next go into a washroom.
Going organic may be the way .. i may try out soon . .because it is said to be 100% chemical free or harsh chemicals .. and if you know me.. and my skin.. you know i cannot take anything strong nor harsh. Before coming to Canada.. folks tell me that the HongKie gals gets such nice skin because of the 4 seasons they experienced.. but how untrue it is. Because the 4 seasons are so harsh on my skin.. and having to change and adapt my skin care products to suit my skin on the different seasons is darn hard.
They have makeup too.. that is totally organic.. as you can see here. Eye colors.. and Eyeliner pencils.. and even for your lips.
Anyone tried this before..??
The Body Shop called it a lip scuff .. i called it the exfoliator and i found this very useful.. because it removes the dead skin on your lips. Yes.. we do have dead skins on our lips too. After using it all over your lips.. you can just gently wipe them away.. or wash them out. You can see the difference.. after just one try. But i won’t used it too often.. maybe twice a week at the most. At $12 from any Body Shop in Canada.
